No matter how successful a person is, failure in love troubles him in every way. Imagine that someone's success was making so much noise on the screen that his attraction was not limited to Bollywood, he was also the choice of producers and directors in Hollywood. The film producers there also kept persuading that hero but he did not agree. He flatly refused saying that he is a nationalist and will work only in his country. The name of this actor was Dev Anand. The most stylish hero of Hindi cinema who was loved by the heroines of the industry and the young women of the country. Dev Anand, who spread his charm in Hindi cinema for 6 decades, never looked back from the beginning of his career till the end. He was so cheerful that he used to talk about embracing even death. He used to say, 'I am not afraid of death. When it comes, I will embrace it, because one day everyone has to die.'
Dev Anand used to move ahead without any worries
He had a movie 'Guide' in which there was a dialogue, 'Na dukh hai, na sukh hai, na deen hai na duniya.' You are just sleeping and then you close your eyes. And, you are in a different world. And, you are gone. You are dead. You have not suffered. Who knows where you are? Only those people will be sad who will be left behind. They will cry for you. Dev Anand also lived with this feeling.

If he cried bitterly for any girl, it was also Suraiya
The year was 1946 and the film was 'Hum Ek Hain', with which Dev Anand started his career and this journey continued without stopping till 2011. His last film was 'Chargesheet' which released in 2011. Dev sahab may have been crazy about his fellow actresses, but Dev sahab was crazy about 'Mallika-e-Husn' Suraiya. She was Dev sahab's first love. If there was any girl for whom a lively person like Dev sahab cried bitterly, it was Suraiya. However, the two could never meet and a condition and threat always kept them apart.
This is how the story of Kalpana and Dev Anand started
Suraiya never got married. But Dev Anand married Kalpana Kartik. The story of their marriage was also very interesting. Actually, Kalpana and Dev Anand were working together in Chetan Anand's film 'Baazi' and Kalpana liked Dev sahab very much. Then both of them came together to work in 'Taxi Driver'. After the first film, Kalpana started getting offers from many other banners. But she refused. She kept refusing to work saying that she only wanted to work with Dev sahab.
This star shone so brightly that all the other stars shone brighter
While shooting on the sets of the film 'Taxi Driver', Dev sahab proposed marriage to Kalpana and she immediately agreed and during the break in the shooting of the film, both of them got married on the sets of the film itself. Dharamdev Pishorimal Anand i.e. Dev Anand worked in 116 films including 'Vidya', 'Jeet', 'Shayar', 'Guide', 'Officer', 'Do Sitare', 'Ziddi' and 'Sanam'. Who would have thought that Dev Anand, who started his career as a clerk, would shine so much on the silver screen that everyone else's shine would fade in front of him.
Ban on wearing black court pants
Dev Anand, who considered Ashok Kumar as his inspiration, was blessed by God and it was Ashok Kumar who gave him a big break. Dev Anand's charm was so much that the court had banned him from wearing black court pants. There is an amazing story behind this too. It is said that he looked so handsome in this coloured court pants that girls wanted to marry him and then he even committed suicide.
Dev Anand had a conflict with the Indira Gandhi government
However, Dev Saheb had called it a rumour in his book 'Romancing with Life'. When Indira Gandhi government imposed emergency in the country, he opposed it and also formed a party named National Party of India, but Dev Anand dissolved the party when he could not find any candidate. Dev Anand said goodbye to this world on 3 December 2011. He was awarded Padma Bhushan in 2001 and Dadasaheb Phalke Award in 2002.
